Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra motion sickness setting: what exists and what helps
No, the Galaxy S24 Ultra does not have motion sickness dots. As of September 2026 no Galaxy phone does: One UI has no vehicle-motion setting of any kind, and the closest controls, Remove animations and Motion smoothness, calm interface motion without drawing moving reference dots. Trade press expects Samsung to add a Motion Assist feature with One UI 9 on Android 17, but Samsung has not confirmed it. What helps today is how you use the phone in the car, stopgap apps that draw the dots themselves, and a plan for when nausea starts anyway.
Motion sickness dots: not available on this phone
The dots answer, precisely
The Galaxy S24 Ultra has no motion sickness dots as of September 2026; no One UI version through Android 16 includes a vehicle-motion setting. Samsung's version, expected under the Motion Assist name with One UI 9 on Android 17, is reported by trade press and not confirmed by Samsung.
Launched on Android 14 with One UI 6.1. Samsung promises 7 generations of OS updates for the S24 series, which makes it eligible for One UI 8 on Android 16 and keeps it in line for later versions; verify the live One UI version on your own unit.

Why this search happens for the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra
Counterpoint data made the S24 Ultra the first Galaxy S model back in the global top-10 best sellers since 2018, so an unusually large number of people are holding one in a moving car. When the iPhone's vehicle motion cues made headlines, owners of Samsung's biggest flagship went looking for the Samsung equivalent and found nothing with that name in Settings.
Counterpoint ranked the Galaxy S24 Ultra as the first Galaxy S model to return to the global top-10 best sellers since 2018.
What actually helps
Where the settings live
- Remove animations
Settings > Accessibility > Visibility enhancements > Remove animations - Motion smoothness
Settings > Display > Motion smoothness
- Look out at the road, not down at the screen. Nausea builds when your eyes report stillness while your inner ear reports motion.
- Sit where the ride is smoothest, usually the front seat, and keep some horizon in your peripheral vision.
- If you want dots today, apps can draw them: KineStop or the Motion Cues app on Google Play. They are prevention tools, best switched on before you feel sick.
- Turn on Remove animations under Visibility enhancements to cut interface motion while you read or scroll.
- Once nausea has started, sound therapy is one drug-free option: the Dizzout app plays precisely calibrated audio through any headphones and brings relief in about 90 seconds.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Samsung S24 Ultra have motion sickness dots?+
No. As of September 2026 no Galaxy phone has the dots on any One UI version through Android 16. If Samsung ships its expected Motion Assist feature, it would arrive with a One UI 9 update, and that remains unconfirmed.
Will the S24 Ultra get Motion Assist with One UI 9?+
The S24 series is covered by Samsung's 7-generation update promise, and trade press expects Motion Assist in One UI 9 on Android 17. Samsung has not confirmed the feature, a date, or which models would get it, so there is nothing to plan around yet.
Is there any motion sickness setting on the S24 Ultra?+
Not for car sickness. The closest controls are Remove animations under Settings > Accessibility > Visibility enhancements and Motion smoothness under Settings > Display, which calm interface motion but do not draw vehicle dots.
What can I use instead of dots on my S24 Ultra?+
Apps can fill the gap: KineStop and the Motion Cues app on Google Play draw screen dots, and the open-source Vehicle Motion Cues app is on F-Droid. Dots are prevention only; once you already feel sick, sound therapy such as Dizzout is a drug-free option that works through any headphones.
